Can this product be used to cover single block work, before cladding?
Answer:
Tyvek® Housewrap may be fixed to masonry with a suitable anchor fixing system or a masonry nail/screw and EPDM rubber washer. Fixings should be at maximum 500mm centres. Tyvek® Butyl Tape (double sided) may be used to fix the membrane in addition to the mechanical methods suggested above. Tyvek® Primer can be applied to chalky or porous masonry to seal the surface and improve adhesion before applying adhesive tape.
